I guess it depends upon the field.

I sweated bullets and worked like a dog in my Masters program and was rewarded with a 4.0 GPA.

Wanna know how many employers/potential employers even asked what my GPA was?

None. Nada. Zip. Zilch. Bupkus.

That said, if you want to be the best you can be for your own sense of self, then by all means go for it. That's an entirely different issue.
